This is Bistek al la Mexicana a common dish found many places. There are several places I get this some better than others but all real decent! Kind of a tomato based sauce with generally pretty tender pieces of beef and a fair amount of it. The rice is pretty generic but the frijoles can be something else. This also includes as many fresh made in front of you tortillas you want and brought to you with a smile. Something like this costs around 50-60 pesos or $3. The squeezed as you watch orange juice is 20 and brings the price up a bit but worth it. Nothing in the States I've ever had compares to this not even close plus it'll cost 7-10 smacks. I don't know what I'm going to eat when I return. It will be an adjustment as I do this so much that is go into Puerto Vallarta on the south side and have me a excellent lunch with "real" Mexican food not the slop I get back there. I do not plan on eating out much at all only at maybe three select places. Pricey yes but worth it because it's so good. I threw away so much money last summer eating way overpriced shitty food. Several times the food got thrown away as well. The whole of Mexico is an eating machine I tell you. I'm gonna miss this.

I feel good and and think the higher temps and humidity contributes to that. It's the same every time. After a month or two you realize and say " Hey I feel pretty damn good!"

Just as important I believe the food made fresh with wholesome fresh ingredients as well contributes to that. Get off the bus in town the food smells everywhere make me hungry just like that.

Make That 1 In 5

Make the time come that "believers" are sat down on a stool in the corner like everyone else when they think they are special or are contributing so much because of their flawed belief in an entity that does not exist. It may be headed that way.

The fact of the matter is these numbers are probably real close to the reality. Yea churches do good things and that's real nice. But others do good things as well. Believing in nonsense makes no difference when good deeds are done.

In the last two years especially - crazy believer's have don't nothing but attempt to divide this country and impose their Taliban ways on all of us and that is just plain crazy.

Oscar Wilde said of the time when the Emperor Nero coated christians in tar and used them as torches in his garden at night, it was the only time christians have been known to give off light. Or anything else of value for that matter.

Oscar Wilde was a Christian. He greatly appreciated the pomp and ceremony of the Catholic Service.

That being said, I can tell you all as one of the few Christians in these parts, I can't think of anything other than some Christian charities that are in existence because of Christianity, that Christians have done because of Christianity either.

We're for the most part these days just interested in saying shit we think God and fellow Christians want to hear.

I think people need to be educated to the fact that marijuana is not a drug. Marijuana is an herb and a flower. God put it here. If He put it here and He wants it to grow, what gives the government the right to say that God is wrong? Willie Nelson
